| Objectives This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the Graston method, an instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) technique, on pain reduction, trigger point count (TPC), pain pressure threshold (PPT), disability, depression, and quality of life. Patients and methods This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study included 84 female patients who were divided into three groups: the Graston group (GG), the sham group (SG), and the control group (CG). In addition to exercise, IASTM was applied to GG with the Graston technique, while the IASTM device was applied to SG without any technique. The CG received exercise only. Patients were assessed before and after treatment using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), TPC, PPT, Neck Disability Index (NDI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and the World Health Organization Health-Related Quality of Life-Brief Form (WHOQOL-BREF … |
